Instructions
- Prepare the balsamic glaze: In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has reduced by about half and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, gently combine the cubed watermelon, crumbled feta cheese, chopped mint, thinly sliced red onion, and diced cucumber.
- Drizzle about half of the cooled balsamic glaze over the salad. Toss very gently to combine, being careful not to break up the watermelon too much.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add more salt and pepper, or a little more glaze, according to your preference.
- For best results, let the salad sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve immediately, with any remaining balsamic glaze on the side for drizzling.
Notes
For an extra touch, add a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds or a few Kalamata olives. You can also add a squeeze of fresh lime juice for a brighter citrus note.
